Posted on behalf of forum user 'Sambwise'. Typemap settings are only considered when adding brand new files, and only if not overridden by the "-t" flag on the add command. Existing files always retain their existing filetype unless explicitly overridden, whether you're editing, renaming, or branching them. Note that the "-t" flag on integrate causes the source filetype to forcibly overwrite the target when they differ -- it has no effect whatsoever when branching a new file (since the source filetype is always propagated in that case anyway). If you want to branch a file and have the branch's type differ from the origin, use "p4 reopen -t TYPE" on the file after opening it. Note also that if you want all your existing files to have the new type, you'll want to "p4 edit -t text" them to add a new revision that gives it the new type. -- Please click here to see the post in its original format: http://forums.perforce.com/index.php?/topic/5547-p4v-question-about-integration-of-files-without-propagating-filetypes _______________________________________________ perforce-user mailing list - [email protected] http://maillist.perforce.com/mailman/listinfo/perforce-user
